When God does it it’s righteous, when we do it we’re just... self-righteous. God has a right to be disgusted by his creatures for he is the great king who forgives, meanwhile we act like jerks to each other and call it righteousness. Pluck that massive tree growing out of your own eye before you assault your brother for the speck in his.

Seriously, there are a handful, well maybe a double handful of posters on the RF who make Christianity look like a complete waste of time and effort. Christ is not glorified, He’s dragged through the mud by people trying to one up each other on how vile and nasty they can be while calling themselves Christlike.

Just because far too many Catholics/Protestants act like selfish, brain-dead, children isn’t a reason to imitate them.

Oh?


1 Peter 4:11
If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God.

This is true; and I'll bet that MY list of them differs from yours.
